Question

I am hosting the web app on Google Cloud Platform with App Engine and I am using ExpressJS and MongoDB, which is hosted on mLab.

Everything worked well until 1/1/201

Answer 1

Create a server and then check with a ternary condition if current environment is production or not, assign port '80' if current environment is development else assign process.env.NODE.ENV.

const app = require('express')();
        const server = require('http').Server(app);
        const port = process.env.NODE_ENV === 'production' ? process.env.PORT :'80';
        server.listen(port, ()=> {
          console.log('listening on port number  *:' + server.address().port);
         });
